MLS suspends Clint Dempsey for slapping opponent in the groin

The MLS Disciplinary Committee has handed out a 2-game suspension to Seattle Sounders star Clint Dempsey for slapping Toronto FC's Mark Bloom in the groin during a game this past weekend, according to a report from the Toronto Sun's Kurtis Larson.

Though the ref missed it, it was pretty blatant when looking at the tape. (Note: Adult language used at the end of this video.)

Seattle's next opponents are Montreal away and Columbus at home. Dempsey will return for a rivalry game against the Portland Timbers.
